Effectively hides the window (if it was visible).

virtual HRESULT InactivateWindow( );

Return Values

Returns NOERROR if successful; S_FALSE if the window is not currently active.

Remarks

The base window class creates a window and a worker thread. The worker thread is responsible for pulling messages from the window's input queue and dispatching them as appropriate. The window and its thread are created by CBaseWindow::PrepareWindowand destroyed in CBaseWindow::DoneWithWindow. The window should be initialized through CBaseWindow::InitialiseWindowand uninitialized through CBaseWindow::UninitialiseWindow. Having prepared a window and initialized it, the window can be sized using CBaseWindow::ActivateWindowand subsequently hidden using CBaseWindow::InactivateWindow.
